Totally agree - while it's great that the CAIDA folks have taken over
Spoofer, and OARC is doing what we can to support other such SAV
research, a major missing piece of the puzzle on BCP38 enforcement is
better data about the extent, scope and localities of the problem. Hard
evidence ought to be more persuasive than gut-feel speculation, and even
it does not persuade it should at least help point the finger.
